Hi,
Does someone know of a way to buy Easton Press books and have them shipped to Europe (Finland)?

Hi
Vilo and welcome to the site!
Easton Press only has license to sell their Tolkien editions in the USA - The Folio Society has the rights in the UK for example.
Your best bet is to find a collector in the USA who is willing to buy them for you and then forward them along (eBay sellers do this as well but their markup is often extravagant).

Thanks Urulókë! I have seen the Ebay listings, they do indeed add quite a markup.
Trotter: Was thinking of a solution similar to this. Have never tried any parcel forwarding services, but might give it a shot.

Easton Press's packaging is not fantastic for standard editions - basically a cardboard mailer. The couple I bought direct came through without incident, but worth considering if forwarding as you would be in a grey area with regards to responsibility for anything damaged and paying for the return, etc.
I only purchased Fall of Arthur and Beowulf from them new and they were willing to ship both of those direct to NZ, but I had to phone them. That was some years back, mind.
